HEADING INTO FALL

FROM:Glenda Kessler

OF:The
Bad Luck Cat Mysteries

BY:Kay
Finch

People commonly talk about spring
cleaning – I sometimes wonder if they don’t ever clean their place in summer, fall, or winter. Here
at Around-the-World Cottages, I think it’s more important to give everything a
good fall cleaning.

The kiddos are back
to school, and the guests who stay with us now are more likely older, not-quite-so-messy
folks. I keep up with all the cleaning
around here, along with the stocking of supplies, laundry, watching out for
Hitchcock the cat, giving advice when needed, and cooking for my boss Rowe Flowers,
who’s also a dear friend.

The cottages are
named after cities that Rowe took trips to – the Venice cottage, Barcelona
cottage, Paris cottage – you get the drift. They’re a nice manageable size to
keep up with, even if that means having to dust hundreds of knick-knacks and
souvenirs that she brought back from those trips.

I think it’s about time Rowe
take another trip – she hasn’t gone anywhere ever since her niece Sabrina came
to live in the Hill Country. Of course, with Sabrina getting herself involved
in a murder investigation every so often, I’d be kind of afraid to leave, too, if
I were Rowe.Besides, our fall weather can
be absolutely gorgeous. You wouldn’t find me living anywhere else – even if we
don’t get the brilliant colored leaves that folks get up north.

You can read all about the escapades here at Around-the-World Cottages in the Bad Luck Cat mysteries.
